Act of Love

In marriage—I’ve learned love is best expressed through actions rather than words. Like myself, my wife lives a productively busy life and I noticed this morning that her truck wasn’t clean—far below my standards for her. So before work, I decided to take a couple hours to detail it. This may not be her “love language” but we do not believe in that concept because love is not a language—it’s action. So instead, we learned how to be bilingual with our hearts and appreciate every ”language” of love expressed from each other!
